This Week in the Can

Posted on 4 May, 2020

Don’t go out This Week in The Can.

Instead, stay in, or venture out only to places where you can keep 1.5 metres between you and the next person.

For more than nine years we’ve published This Week in The Can—a round-up of events around the ACT. But we are living in extraordinary times, and now is not the time for us to be encouraging people to be out and about.

We encourage you to keep physical distance between each other, as we battle COVID-19 and work together to continue to flatten the curve.

So, instead of a round-up of events, here are some ideas of what you can do at home + some of our ‘must-read’ articles from the past week.
